Hi All,

We want to Automate the process of Updating our Intercompany partners "External Setup".
Microsoft uses variables to display the values and use Isolated Storage to save the keys.

Unfortunatley Isolated Storage is per App ID and not per environment even with the various Scope options. (For security purposes)
We are looking Global procedure in the base app to set the Isolated Storage with Scope::Company as this is needed to update the Guid Key fields on the IC partner Table.
Thanks in Advance!

page 565 "CrossIntercompany Modify Setup"

table 413 "IC Partner"

Hi,

You rightly said that IsolatedStorage is per App. Currently I could not find any global procedure on the IC partner page.

Isn't it the exact reason to keep the data secure, that Microsoft used internal procedure to create Guid keys and save values in IsolatedStorage?

Let's say even if you create your own procedure and call it to save details on IC partner with your extension, Microsoft's Base extension would not be able to fetch those value in their extension, correct?

So yes, the values are secured as Microsoft intended. Let me know if any question.

Regards,

Dhiren.

As far as i know What you are looking for does not exist by design, and there is no supported workaround inside Business Central to share or globally set Isolated Storage keys.

Hello,

This cannot be automated against the Base App: Intercompany External Setup secrets are stored in Base App isolated storage, which is scoped per AppId by design, so your extension cannot read or write those keys (even with DataScope::Company), and the helper methods are internal and not callable. The only supported options are to enter the secret manually per environment and automate only non-secret fields, or build your own secure storage/token handling (e.g., your extension’s isolated storage or Azure Key Vault) and manage IC calls yourself—there is no global/public API to inject secrets into the Base App IC setup.

Regards,

Oussama

As far as I know, this cannot be retrieved directly unless you manually store these values in another table, such as a custom table.
Of course, this is not secure.
